Mycobiota and Mycotoxin Contamination of Traditional and Industrial Dry-Fermented Sausage <i>Kulen</i>

The aim of this study was to identify and compare surface mycobiota of traditional and industrial Croatian dry-fermented sausage <i>Kulen</i>, especially toxicogenic species, and to detect contamination with mycotoxins recognized as the most important for meat products. Identification of...
